Substrate Specificity in Glycoside Hydrolase Family 10
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Endoxylanases are a group of enzymes that hydrolyze the beta-1, 4-linked xylose backbone of xylans. They are predominantly found in two discrete sequence families known as glycoside hydrolase families 10 and 11. The Streptomyces lividans xylanase Xyl10A is a family 10 enzyme, the native structure of which has previously been determined by x-ray crystallography at a 2.6 A resolution (Derewenda, U., Swenson, L., Green, R., Wei, Y., Morosoli, R., Shareck, F., Kluepfel, D., and Derewenda, Z. S. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 20811-20814). Here, we report the native structure of Xyl10A refined at a resolution of 1.2 A, which reveals many features such as the rare occurrence of a discretely disordered disulfide bond between residues Cys-168 and Cys-201. In order to investigate substrate binding and specificity in glycoside hydrolase family 10, the covalent xylobiosyl enzyme and the covalent cellobiosyl enzyme intermediates of Xyl10A were trapped through the use of appropriate 2-fluoroglycosides. The alpha-linked intermediate with the nucleophile, Glu-236, is in a (4)C(1) chair conformation as previously observed in the family 10 enzyme Cex from Cellulomonas fimi (Notenboom, V., Birsan, C., Warren, R. A. J., Withers, S. G., and Rose, D. R. (1998) Biochemistry 37, 4751-4758). The different interactions of Xyl10A with the xylobiosyl and cellobiosyl moieties, notably conformational changes in the -2 and -1 subsites, together with the observed kinetics on a range of aryl glycosides, shed new light on substrate specificity in glycoside hydrolase family 10.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
